Neumann M 50 V Large Diaphragm Omnidirectional Tube Condenser Microphone, Legendary Orchestral Recording Precision
The Neumann M 50 V Large Diaphragm Omnidirectional Tube Condenser Microphone delivers the iconic sound and imaging that defined classical and orchestral recordings for more than 70 years, now reissued with modern enhancements for today’s professional studios.
Built around a specially engineered 40 mm acrylic-sphere omnidirectional capsule, the M 50 V transitions from true omni at low frequencies to increasing directivity above 1 kHz, offering natural room capture, precise imaging, and transparent sound reproduction. This makes it ideal for immersive recording techniques such as Decca Tree and surround microphone arrays.
Unlike typical large diaphragm designs, the M 50 V features a titanium K 33 Ti diaphragm for superior thermal stability and exceptionally fast transient response. The low noise tube circuit with a hand wired output transformer adds musical warmth and rich harmonic detail while maintaining outstanding clarity.
This premium pressure transducer microphone offers expansive frequency response with deep sub sonic bass and a smooth high frequency lift, without proximity effect. The result is a balanced and realistic sound image when capturing full orchestras, piano, string sections, choirs, or detailed room ambience.
Manufactured with meticulous German craftsmanship and supplied with a universal auto adapting power supply and a robust mechanical decoupling mount, the Neumann M 50 V is engineered for demanding professional use while preserving the classic sonic character that has shaped countless landmark recordings.
